In Sympy, the function
Ellipse.is_tangent() is used to check whether an Ellipse, LinearEntity or Polygon is tangent to the given Ellipse or not.
Syntax: is_tangent(o) Parameters: o an Ellipse, LinearEntity or Polygon Returns: True if o is tangent to the ellipse, False otherwise. Raises: NotImplementedError When the wrong type of argument is supplied.
Example #1:
# import sympy and Point, Ellipse, Line from sympy import Point, Ellipse, Line
p0, p1, p2 = Point(0, 0), Point(3, 0), Point(3, 3)
# using Line and Ellipse method e1 = Ellipse(p0, 3, 2)
l1 = Line(p1, p2)
# using is_tangent method e1.is_tangent(l1) |
Output:
True
Example #2:
# import sympy and Point, Ellipse, Line from sympy import Point, Ellipse, Line
p0, p1, p2 = Point(0, 0), Point(4, 0), Point(4, 2)
# using Line and Ellipse method e1 = Ellipse(p0, 3, 2)
l1 = Line(p1, p2)
# using is_tangent method e1.is_tangent(l1) |
Output:
False
